Industry News – Industrial Development Bureau Launches Carbon Inventory Calculator to Help Companies Keep Track of Factory Carbon Emission Estimates

The Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA) has adopted a large and then small model to assist industries to gradually build up carbon inventory and carbon reduction capabilities by conducting training, establishing carbon inventory calculators, providing guidance on carbon inventory/inventory, analyzing carbon reduction hotspots to suppliers, and matching experts to introduce technology to reduce carbon emissions. Carbon reduction capacity. The Ministry of Economic Affairs has officially launched the carbon inventory calculator on the 30th, through a simple digital tool to help small and medium-sized manufacturing industries to take the first step towards carbon reduction.

Enterprises only need to inventory the energy or equipment used in the factory, find out the corresponding electricity bills, fuel bills (such as liquefied natural gas, fuel oil, gas and diesel, coal) and other information, respectively, keyed into the calculator in each field of annual use, you can easily estimate their annual carbon emissions. The Industrial Development Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs said that the first step to reduce carbon is to do a “carbon inventory” to grasp the source of carbon emissions in order to gradually implement carbon reduction work, taking into account the large number of small and medium-sized domestic manufacturing industries, the source of carbon emissions mainly electricity is relatively pure, less control of their own greenhouse gas emissions in the past, I hope to develop a carbon inventory calculator for small and medium-sized manufacturing industries. We hope to develop a carbon inventory calculator for small and medium-sized manufacturing industries.

In the first quarter of this year, the Industrial Development Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs held 12 “Carbon Inventory and Carbon Footprint Workshops” with over 1,800 attendees. In response to the strong demand for industry training, 10 additional workshops will be held in the second quarter, and experts will be sent to industry associations to explain. We believe that with the cooperation of industry, we will continue to improve the carbon management capability of small and medium-sized manufacturing industries to respond to the global net zero race.

If you have any questions on the use of the carbon inventory calculator, please contact the service number: 02-7704-5139, E-mail: m508106010@ftis.org.tw; if you have carbon inventory or carbon reduction counseling needs, please visit the Industrial Development Bureau, Ministry of Economic Affairs. If you have a need for carbon inventory or carbon reduction counseling, please visit the “Industrial Energy Saving and Carbon Reduction Information Website of the Industrial Development Bureau, Ministry of Economic Affairs – Manufacturing Sector Carbon Inventory Special Zone” (https://ghg.tgpf.org.tw/).
